[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Imagine yourself in a minivan with four other adults in the deep depths of the ocean where you can’t see anything for days and probably are out of provisions and nowhere to use the toilet. You couldn’t pay me enough. [/quote]

I got stuck (by myself and without a cellphone) in an elevator once for over an hour. That alone was enough to send me into a full blown panic.  This sounds unimaginable. I just hope they're taking care of one another and that someone in the group is helping everyone stay as calm as possible until the end.  The thought of being the last one alive is also horrifying. [/quote]

The air quality must be terrible.  How can you not panic in that situation with no communication with the outside world? [/quote]

Stockton accepted the risk of this mission. He said so in an interview. You either come back up or you die if something goes wrong, so my guess is he's not panicking because he had already accepted his fate when he boarded that ship. You don't board it with any hesitation in mind, like what if this doesn't work out? You're thinking if this doesn't work out, then I accept my fate. Not sure if the others have that steel mentality even though they're adventurers and risk-takers and one even went to space.  The Pakistani guy and his son--well, they're probably panicking because they sort of seemed along for the ride. [/quote]

Impossible to know, but Stockton rush’s steel mentality is not going to be taken well by his fellow passengers. He is responsible for all of this. [/quote]

I’ve been wondering how that has played out. Have they been yelling at him? Asking him about every possibility? Questioning his judgment and feeling he lead them to their deaths? Tensions must be really high.[/quote]

Me three. It would be hard to not lose it on him if/when you realized your fate (assuming it wasn't a pressure breach).[/quote]

He’d be BSing them about the high probability of being rescued. [/quote]
